Those functions take a pointer to a timestamp and return a timestamp pointer,
so the reader would be justified to think that those are just getters. Rename
them to avoid confusion.
nanosleep() is kinda broken since it sleeps in the CLOCK_REALTIME clock,
i.e. is subject to time changes.
Let's use clock_nanosleep() instead with CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which is
really the only thing that makes sense.
We use usec_t for storing time value, which is 64bit.
However, usleep() takes useconds_t that is (typically?) 32bit.
Also, usleep() may only support the range [0, 1000000].
This introduce usleep_safe() which takes usec_t.
This just adds the base functionality and some unit tests.
With TABLE_TIMESTAMP_RELATIVE we print "5s ago" and "5s left",
with the new TABLE_TIMESTAMP_LEFT, we print "5s ago" but "5s".
This is more useful for cases where we generally only want to
print timestamps in the future.
If the delta specified is INT64_MIN, and we negate that we'd end up at
INT64_MAX+1 which is outside of the int64_t type. Hence let's treat this
case specifically to avoid unintended overflows.
Let's raise our supported baseline a bit: CLOCK_BOOTTIME started to work
with timerfd in kernel 3.15 (i.e. back in 2014), let's require support
for it now.
This will raise our baseline only modestly from 3.13 → 3.15.
As suggested in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/11484#issuecomment-775288617.
This does not touch anything exposed in src/systemd. Changing the defines there
would be a compatibility break.
Note that tests are broken after this commit. They will be fixed in the next one.
By making them unsigned comparing them with other sizes is less likely
to trigger compiler warnings regarding signed/unsigned comparisons.
After all sizes (i.e. size_t) are generally assumed to be unsigned, so
these should be too.

Let's split this out into its own helper function we can reuse at
various places.
Also, let's avoid signed values where we can so that we can cover more
of the available time range.
This works like parse_sec() but defaults to USEC_INFINITY when passed an
empty string or only whitespace.
Also introduce config_parse_sec_def_infinity, which can be used to parse
config options using this function.
This is useful for time options that use "infinity" for default and that
can be reset by unsetting them.
Introduce a test case to ensure it works as expected.
Let's be more careful with what we serialize: let's ensure we never
serialize strings that are longer than LONG_LINE_MAX, so that we know we
can read them back with read_line(…, LONG_LINE_MAX, …) safely.
In order to implement this all serialization functions are move to
serialize.[ch], and internally will do line size checks. We'd rather
skip a serialization line (with a loud warning) than write an overly
long line out. Of course, this is just a second level protection, after
all the data we serialize shouldn't be this long in the first place.
While we are at it also clean up logging: while serializing make sure to
always log about errors immediately. Also, (void)ify all calls we don't
expect errors in (or catch errors as part of the general
fflush_and_check() at the end.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
When using strftime in arbitrary locales, we cannot really say how big the
buffer should be. Let's make the buffer "large", which will work fine pretty
much always, and just print n/a if the timestamp does not fit. strftime returns
0 if the buffer is too small and a NUL-terminated string otherwise, so we
can drop the size specifications in string formatting.

This extends 2d79a0bbb9 to the kernel
command line parsing.
The parsing is changed a bit to only understand "0" as infinity. If units are
specified, parse normally, e.g. "0s" is just 0. This makes it possible to
provide a zero timeout if necessary.
Simple test is added.
Fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1462378.
usec_t is always 64bit, which means it can cover quite a number of
years. However, 4 digit year display and glibc limitations around time_t
limit what we can actually parse and format. Let's make this explicit,
so that we never end up formatting dates we can#t parse and vice versa.
Note that this is really just about formatting/parsing. Internal
calculations with times outside of the formattable range are not
affected.
